She looked at the second princess walking beside her, with a quiet and innocent smile on her face. The second princess was Ye Chonghua's sister from the same mother. Because of this, even though she was not smart and had a cowardly personality, she was not bullied in the palace.
Thinking of this, Li Fangfei smiled and called her: "Second Princess, have you visited the second prince since he came back?"
The second princess was originally admiring the scenery along the way. When she heard Li Fangfei's question, she replied: "Not yet. I was planning to go after lunch. Fangfei, would you like to go with me?"
Li Fangfei saw that the second princess' question hit the mark, and she pursed her lips slightly, as if she was thinking in embarrassment.
The second princess saw her thinking, so she asked, "What's wrong?"
Li Fangfei smiled and said, "Fangfei is very happy, but... the second prince just came back from the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and he must be quite tired. The princess has a close relationship with the second prince, so why not make a soup for the second prince to show the brother-sister relationship?"
The second princess' eyes lit up when she heard this, but then dimmed immediately.
Seeing this, Li Fangfei couldn't help but ask, "Does the princess have any difficulties?"
The second princess said awkwardly, "But I don't know how to make soup..."
Li Fangfei seemed to be relieved, and smiled sweetly, "I know how to make soup for the princess, and the princess will give it to the second prince, but don't say it was made by me!"
The second princess was very happy when she heard this, "Really? Fangfei, you are so kind!"
Li Fangfei just smiled faintly, picked up the handkerchief and covered her lower lip lightly, hiding a trace of calculation on her lips.
A bright moon hangs in the night sky, the moonlight is like water, and the starry sky is bright.
The past two days have been busy with official business. Ye Chonghua has been sitting in the study all day reading documents from various places. It's just that he hasn't seen Ouyang Wu for a day, and he can't help but miss her. He doesn't know what she is doing at the moment. Maybe she is still angry with him?
He and Wu'er have a three-month agreement. Now some days have passed, and he doesn't want to waste time.
Ye Chonghua smiled faintly, and he sped up the speed of reading the documents. He can see her earlier if he finishes these things quickly.
As he was looking at her, he heard a knock on the door, so he casually replied, "Come in."
The door was gently pushed open, and Ye Chonghua asked without even looking up, "What's the matter?"
"Royal brother, I'm here to see you!"
Ye Chonghua heard a familiar voice, and then he looked up and saw that it was his sister, so he smiled and said, "Royal sister, why are you here so late?" When his eyes touched Li Fangfei standing aside, his brows slightly frowned. People from the Li family made people feel disgusted for no reason, not to mention that the two sisters from the Li family liked to pester him since they were young.
The second princess was born stupid and not good at reading people's faces. She didn't feel Ye Chonghua's displeasure at all. She took the food box from the maid beside her, opened it and took out a soup bowl from it, opened it and took out a small bowl from it and handed it to Ye Chonghua, saying happily: "Royal brother, you just came back from the Eastern Jin Dynasty, so I made a bowl of soup for you to nourish yourself. Come, try it?"
Ye Chonghua chuckled when he heard it: "When did my sister think so thoughtfully? Okay, how does it taste?" Although the second princess was not smart, she listened to Ye Chonghua very much. Ye Chonghua was a little hungry, so he didn't ask anything. After saying that, he took a sip from the soup bowl and smiled: "Well, it tastes really good."
"If my brother likes it, drink more." The second princess was very happy to hear this and blinked at Li Fangfei.
Ye Chonghua hummed and drank the soup in the bowl.
Li Fangfei also laughed, but there was a hint of success in her eyes. The second princess turned around and looked at the documents piled on the table, and said to Ye Chonghua: "Brother, you have so many things to deal with as soon as you come back?"
Ye Chonghua chuckled, looked up at the sky, and said to the princess: "It's getting late. Brother has a lot of things to deal with today. You should go back first. When brother is free, I will come to the palace to see you."
The second princess smiled and said: "Okay, then the princess will go first."
"Come on, send the princess back to the palace!"
Ye Chonghua's eyes have never been on Li Fangfei. Li Fangfei followed the second princess out of the study. When she walked to the door, she seemed to suddenly remember something and said to the princess: "Princess, Fangfei's handkerchief is missing!"
"Could it have fallen in brother's study?" The second princess helped to speculate.
Li Fangfei then said, "This handkerchief is Fangfei's favorite. Fangfei will stay here and look for it. It's getting late, so Princess should go back to the palace first."
The second princess thought about it and thought nothing would happen in her brother's house. If she was late and the palace gate was closed, it would be troublesome. So she told Li Fangfei a few words and went back first.
Seeing the second princess walk away, Li Fangfei turned around and walked straight to the study.
After drinking the soup, Ye Chonghua continued to devote himself to the documents, but he felt dizzy. The words on the documents were scattered one by one. Ye Chonghua frowned, and a touch of coldness flashed in his eyes. His fingers touched his eyebrows involuntarily, but he couldn't resist the erosion of the medicine after all, and fell on the desk with a bang.
The door of the study was gently opened. Li Fangfei walked to the desk with a glimmer of pride in her eyes. She looked at the unconscious Ye Chonghua and said firmly: "I will never let another woman snatch you away!"
When Ye Chonghua woke up, he felt that he had no strength in his body and his head was dizzy, but he was strong-willed and forced himself to sit up. Only then did he realize that he had been lying on the bed in the study without knowing when. Before he could react, a charming and aggrieved voice came from behind him: "Second Prince, are you awake?"
Ye Chonghua was startled and turned around, only to find that the person lying in the bed was Li Fangfei who came with the emperor's sister yesterday. At this time, she covered herself with a quilt, revealing her delicate collarbone, and her clothes were messy. Ye Chonghua quickly realized that nothing had happened between him and her, but he might have fallen into her trap.
He glanced at her, and the sharp eyes that saw through everything made Li Fangfei tremble. Thinking of what he did to Chu Fengxian, she was afraid for a moment. But soon, the fear faded. She was not that fool Chu Fengxian. Since she had done it, she was sure to succeed. She sat up with the quilt in her arms, lowered her eyes, and two blushes quickly appeared on her cheeks. She said in a delicate voice: "Second Prince, why are you looking at me like this?"
"I was wondering how there could be such a cheap woman."
He, Ye Zhonghua, was never afraid of threats from others. He didn't want to have anything to do with this woman, but since she came to him, he would not be polite.
Li Fangfei felt guilty when she saw Ye Chonghua like this, so she hugged his arm. Because she was sitting up, her shoulders were half exposed. Ye Chonghua waved her hand away and said with disgust: "Don't dirty my hands." The door of the room was opened, and the queen appeared at the door with the servants. The servants were embarrassed when they saw the scene in the room. Seeing this, the queen turned around and said to the servants in a stern voice: "Get out!"
The servants hurriedly retreated and closed the door.
The queen faced the door, a smile appeared in her eyes, she quickly suppressed it and turned to look at Ye Chonghua and Li Fangfei on the bed, slowly said: "Just now a servant came to report that Feibai you are not feeling well, so I came to see you... What do you think is going on?"
Li Fangfei sobbed a little, choked up and said: "Yesterday Fangfei and the second princess came to visit the second prince, and originally went back with the princess, but Fangfei's favorite handkerchief fell in the second prince's study, so she went back to look for it, and saw the second prince lying on the table, so she wanted to ask, but she didn't expect that the second prince... the second prince..."
She couldn't speak at this point.
Unexpectedly, Ye Chonghua sneered and asked: "How is this king?"
Li Fangfei was stunned, stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer. The queen at the side said at this time: "Asshole, Feibai, what are you talking about?"
"Isn't she the one who knows best whether I am an asshole or not?" After saying that, she glanced at Li Fangfei. Li Fangfei felt embarrassed, but she was still determined. She bit her lip and said shyly: "Second Prince, Fangfei did lose her virginity to you last night."
The queen said at this time: "Since it is done, Feibai, you must be responsible for Fangfei!"
"Oh? How to be responsible?"
"Of course, marry her and get married with her." The queen said lightly.
Li Fangfei hid in the corner of the bed and cried like a pear blossom in the rain. Ye Chonghua's face became colder when he heard it. He looked at Li Fangfei in the corner of the bed, as if he thought of something, and smiled slightly, and replied: "Okay."
After that, he just got out of bed and left the study.
Okay! He actually said yes, without refusing!
Li Fangfei on the bed showed a touch of ecstasy. She thought she would have to use all kinds of means, but now Ye Chonghua agreed easily. She couldn't help but smile on her face. I guess Ye Chonghua also has feelings for her.
After Ye Chonghua left, Li Fangfei smiled at the queen standing in front of the bed: "Thank you, aunt."
Since Ouyang Wu came to Xiling, she stayed in Liuyuan every day. The scenery in Liuyuan was beautiful and picturesque. Except for Zhulu, no one disturbed her. She ate delicious food every day, read some books left by Ye Chonghua, and occasionally asked Zhulu to pick some flowers for her to make paint. Her life was very comfortable, but it was really boring.
Ouyang Wu decided that she must find something to do, but before that she had to kick Ye Chonghua out first.
Just when she said she was bored, someone came to her door.
Ouyang Wu looked at the woman in front of her, wearing a light purple gauze, her eyes were full of spring water, and she had a butterfly hairpin on her head. Her face was beautiful, and her face was stained with a thin layer of rouge, which made her look more dazzling.
Ouyang Wu looked at the woman in front of her, surrounded by a bunch of maids, and she must be a noble woman. The woman who came here to find her probably had only one thing.
But the other party didn't speak, and Ouyang Wu didn't speak either, just standing there, with a faint smile on her face, and didn't say anything.
Li Fangfei looked at the woman in front of her, standing there calmly, showing elegance in every move, outstanding style, and unparalleled beauty. She had a pair of extremely beautiful eyes, as clear and moving as a clear pool, but one glance would make people unwilling to look away.
Li Fangfei saw that Ouyang Wu was not going to ask questions, so she took the initiative to step forward and said, "The prince said that my sister lives here, so he asked me to come and chat with my sister."
Ouyang Wu understood what he said and smiled lightly, "Those who call me sister are not living well now, so it's better for you not to call me sister."
Li Fangfei saw that she hit a soft nail as soon as she opened her mouth, so she turned cold and said, "If you don't like it, Fangfei won't call you sister. But in the future, we will serve the prince together. If you call me so strangely, I'm afraid the prince will not like it."
Although Ouyang Wu has not officially married Ye Chonghua yet, her identity as a princess is already there. Li Fangfei deliberately called her "girl". Her thoughts were self-evident. Li Fangfei's face was full of pride after she finished speaking: "The prince stayed at my place yesterday. If she gets pregnant one day, it's still uncertain who will be the queen."
Ouyang Wu seemed a little puzzled. She turned to ask Zhu Lu on the side: "Are all the women in Xiling so open that they can lose their virginity before getting married?"
"You! You are obviously jealous. What's wrong with the prince liking me?" Li Fangfei's face suddenly darkened when she heard this. She snorted and wanted to turn around and leave: "Hehe, don't think you can definitely marry the prince. The prince has promised to marry me and can only marry me!"
Li Fangfei walked out of the courtyard after she finished speaking.
Ouyang Wu looked at Li Fangfei's back as she left, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his lips. Ye Chonghua, you really know how to make trouble for me!
Not long after Li Fangfei left, Zhu Lu came over with a beautiful food box: "Princess, this is two snacks that the prince specially asked someone to make for you, one is cheese puffs, and the other is fruit chicken."
"I'm not hungry." Ouyang Wu didn't even look at it, but just lowered her head to paint on the rice paper with her newly developed pigments. Zhu Lu stood aside holding the food box and asked carefully, "Princess, are you unhappy?"
Ouyang Wu paused with the pen in her hand. Is she unhappy? Why was her heart blocked when she heard that Ye Chonghua was going to marry another woman? She exhaled lightly and said lightly: "Should I be unhappy?"
Zhu Lu hurriedly changed the subject: "Well... the prince said he would come to accompany you in the evening to let you relax."
"No need, I want to go to bed early tonight."
After spending these few days together, Zhu Lu felt that Ouyang Wu was a very easy-going person, always treating people with a pleasant face, but she could never figure out her temperament. Her expression was always indifferent, and her likes and dislikes could not be seen on her face.
"Oh, Wu'er, are you angry with me?" The tall and handsome man came with his hands behind his back, his expression was a little happy. When Zhu Lu saw Ye Chonghua coming in, her back straightened up involuntarily. She put the food box within Ouyang Wu's reach, saluted Ye Chonghua, and left in a hurry.
Ouyang Wu pretended not to hear and frowned as she pondered how to make this painting of blooming flowers more beautiful. Ye Chonghua walked behind Ouyang Wu, gently embraced her from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder. He stared at her painting carefully and slowly said, "My princess is the most perfect woman in the world. She is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. She can walk out of the devil's jungle, kill people, and cure all kinds of stubborn diseases. What else do I not know?"
Ouyang Wu snorted, "Ye Chonghua, are you flattering me like this to get away with it?"
"What?"
"The woman you favored last night came to yell at me today."
Ye Chonghua picked up a bunch of Ouyang Wu's hair with his slender fingers and played with it in his hands: "Oh? Who dared to yell in front of the princess? I will avenge you."
Ouyang Wu threw the paintbrush on the table and turned to stare at him: "Are you still pretending?"
Ye Chonghua looked at Ouyang Wu's angry look, his eyes widened, his red lips pouted slightly, and he suddenly felt that she was very cute. A faint smile was carved on his face. He opened his hands to pick her up and put her on the table, staring at her intently: "Who else can I favor except my Wu'er?"
Ouyang Wu remembered Li Fangfei's arrogance when she came to the door. Just as she was about to speak, Ye Zhonghua's lips almost bit her viciously. Ouyang Wu was angry and thumped his back with both hands. Ye Zhonghua suddenly exerted force, and Ouyang Wu's breath was choked. She opened her mouth, and when their lips touched, his kiss had a hint of viciousness. He drove straight in, without retreating, wildly demanding, and confusingly teasing. Ouyang Wu actually forgot to refuse for a moment, and the hands that were thumping him slowly softened and hung on both sides.
After an unknown amount of time, Ye Chonghua finally let her go and stroked her slightly messy hair: "Wu'er, although you are jealous of me and I am very happy, I will not marry anyone else except you."
"Who is jealous?" Ouyang Wu raised her blushing face. Ye Chonghua looked at her like this and smiled evilly. "If you keep staring at me like this, will you seduce me to kiss you again?"
"...Shameless!"
If we talk about the most excited person in the past few days, it is Li Xianyao. Li Fangfei and Ye Chonghua are already a done deal. From now on, the power of the Li family will become stronger.
Li Xianyao sat in the front hall drinking tea. Thinking about it, he felt in a good mood. He stroked his beard with his hand and laughed. Just when she saw Li Fangfei coming out of the inner room, she looked very happy. Just as she was about to go out, she asked, "Fangfei, where are you going?"
Li Fangfei walked to Li Xianyao and said happily, "Daddy, the prince asked me to go out and said he was going to the street to buy some things."
Li Xianyao looked at the sky and said, "It's getting late. Are you going out now?"
"Daddy, we can go to the night market. Besides, with the prince's protection, what are you worried about!"
Li Xianyao looked at his daughter and laughed, "Then go early and come back early!"
Li Fangfei nodded when she heard it, and she didn't even take the maid with her. Men always can't get over the beauty. Besides, now that King Ning thinks they have had physical contact, he must be more concerned about her. Li Fangfei's lips curled up with a happy smile. She walked and looked at the note in her hand. The note read: See you at the tea shop in the east of the city - Ye Feibai
Li Fangfei didn't want to be disturbed, so she went there alone. When she arrived at the teahouse in the east of the city, she found that the teahouse was closed. Li Fangfei was a little confused and turned around to look around, but found that there was no one here.
She was a little scared at the moment. Just as she was about to leave, a pair of hands suddenly stretched out from behind her, holding a wet towel, and suddenly covered Li Fangfei's mouth. Li Fangfei struggled hard, but she couldn't get rid of the strength of the person behind her. She struggled weaker and weaker, and finally fell into the arms of the man behind her. Seeing that she had fainted, the man carried her on his back and walked towards the direction of the grove outside the city...
Ye Chonghua stayed in Liuyuan last night, and insisted on sleeping in the same bed with Ouyang Wu, but Ouyang Wu couldn't resist him. But he was awakened by the noisy sound early in the morning. Before Ouyang Wu asked, a servant reported outside the door: "Your Majesty, Lord Li and his son Li Gong have been outside the door for a long time, and they are clamoring to see you."
Ye Chonghua had a bit of displeasure on his face. He was in a bad mood just after waking up. He buried his face in Ouyang Wu's neck: "I know, let them wait."
Ouyang Wu moved his head away: "Ye Chonghua, your father-in-law is here to see you, shouldn't you go out to greet him?"
"My father-in-law is in the Eastern Jin Kingdom. Even if he comes, I'm too lazy to see him." Ye Chonghua sat up and hugged Ouyang Wu, "Wu'er, do you need me to change your clothes for you?"
Ouyang Wu's lips twitched. Can you stop being so frivolous?
Ye Chonghua saw Ouyang Wu curled her lips, smiled and scratched her hair: "Wu'er, get up and watch the show!"
Li Xianyao and Li Gong waited in the front hall for nearly half an hour, but still did not see Ye Chonghua come out, so they were a little annoyed. Li Gong slapped the table hard and said angrily: "Is this second prince deliberately making things difficult for us? Fang Fei has not been found yet, but he has hidden. This matter must be related to him!"
"What did Young Master Li say about me?" Ye Chonghua walked out slowly with Ouyang Wu, his chin slightly raised.
When Li Xianyao saw them coming out, he stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, my daughter Fangfei said last night that you had an appointment, but she didn't come back after she went out. Does your Majesty know what happened?"
Ye Chonghua suddenly realized what he said and said, "I did make an appointment with Fangfei to have tea at the teahouse in the west of the city yesterday, but I waited and waited, but Fangfei never came. I thought something happened in the mansion, so I came back first. Why didn't Fangfei come back yesterday?"
Ouyang Wu on the side was a little speechless. Ye Chonghua was really good at making up lies. He was with her the whole day yesterday, so why did he wait and wait?
Li Gong became even angrier when he heard Ye Chonghua say this, and angrily said, "You are obviously making excuses. If it weren't for you, how could Fangfei not be seen?"
He saw Ouyang Wu who didn't say anything and snorted, "Fangfei saw her yesterday. Maybe you two hid her!"
Li Xianyao saw that Li Gong was getting more and more outrageous, so he stopped him and said, "Don't talk nonsense!"
At this moment, a servant hurriedly ran in from outside the door, looking very panicked, and came up to him and said, "Master Li, Miss Fangfei has been found, but... "
Li Gong stepped forward and asked, "Just what..."
"The young lady was found in the grove outside the east of the city. She was already dying when she was found. Now..."
Li Xianyao was unable to stand after hearing this. He stepped back a few steps and supported himself on the chair, trembling and said, "How is she now?"
The servant lowered his head and whispered, "The doctor said that there is no way to save her."
Li Gong was incredulous when he heard this: "How could it be? No, I'll go back and take a look!" After saying that, he rushed out. Only then did Li Xianyao come to his senses and followed Li Gong away.
Ouyang Wu looked at their backs as they left, thinking about something. She glanced at Ye Chonghua, and there was no extra expression on his face. Since Ye Chonghua didn't do this, who did it?
Ye Chonghua didn't care. Li Fangfei was not an important person to him. Now that someone had done it for him, he could rest assured. He called Zhulu to bring breakfast, and personally scooped a bowl of shark fin porridge for Ouyang Wu: "Eat it."
Li Xianyao and Li Gong had some hope when they first heard that Li Fangfei was dying, but when they arrived, Li Fangfei was already dead. Li Xianyao and Li Gong could hardly believe the scene in front of them. Li Fangfei's face was gray and pale, and there was fear on her stiff face. Her hair was disheveled, and there were small scars on her face. Her clothes had been changed, but the exposed skin was purple and blue, which was unbearable to look at.
Li Gong felt like he was struck by lightning when he saw his sister like this. He turned his head to look at the old lady sitting beside him with a sullen face and asked: "Grandma, what's going on?"
The old lady's lips were gray and trembling. She said sternly: "Doctor Li said that Fangfei was abused to death last night!"
At the end of her words, a pair of eyes burst into sparks of hatred.
Li Xianyao took a few steps back and muttered, "How is this possible? Who would do this? Who dares to do this? Who dares!" He became more and more excited as he spoke. He pulled out the long sword hanging on the wall and was about to go out aggressively, "Whoever killed my daughter, I will make him pay with blood!" Li Gong hurriedly grabbed Li Xianyao: "Dad, don't be impulsive." His eyes were red: "No matter who it is, our Li family will make her die a miserable death!" The sky outside suddenly became like night. With the light of lightning, a loud thunder passed by, and the big raindrops poured down with crackling. In an instant, there was a sound of rustling in all directions. Li Fangfei's face looked grayer and grayer in the lightning. Li Gong burst into tears: "Dad, you must avenge your sister!" "Yes, check it out immediately. Who has Fangfei seen before? Find it out for me immediately!" The old lady said and kept poking the ground with her crutches, making a banging sound. A trembling maid came out and knelt in front of the old lady: "Yes, yes...Princess Ye."
"Is it the woman that Prince Ning brought back?"
"Yes." The maid, still wiping her tears, recounted the whole story of Li Fangfei meeting Ouyang Wu yesterday. Li Gong on the side said angrily, "That woman must be jealous of Fangfei's favor from the prince, so she attacked my sister."
"Hmph, I want to report to the emperor, and cut this witch who killed Fangfei into pieces!" Li Xianyao immediately asked the coachman to drive the carriage to the palace regardless of the bad weather. His hair was messy and his clothes were untidy. After the eunuch reported, he knelt directly in front of the emperor, tears streaming down his face: "Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me, Your Majesty-"
"What's wrong, my dear?"
"My little daughter Fangfei-was killed by Princess Ye, I beg the emperor to help me Get justice."
"Are you talking about Ouyang Wu?" The emperor frowned. Although he didn't like Ouyang Wu, she was the woman that Ye Chonghua wanted to marry. Since he recognized her position, she was also half a royal family. "Do you have any evidence?"
"What other evidence do you need?!" Li Xianyao said angrily, "Fangfei met Ouyang Wu before she died. Besides, who else would want to kill my daughter except her? My Fangfei was going to marry Prince Ning. Woo, my Fangfei..."
Li Xianyao burst into tears. The emperor coughed and helped Li Xianyao up with both hands: "My dear, please accept my condolences. I will thoroughly investigate this matter and give you an explanation. If it was really Ouyang Wu who did it, I will let her be executed."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Looking at Li Xianyao's staggering back, the emperor sighed and stroked his eyebrows unconsciously. Ouyang Wu, it was Ouyang Wu again. Ouyang Wu was only the daughter of the prime minister of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but she needed six cities in exchange. She was so vicious. He didn't want her to become the Ning Wangfei.
But now Fei Bai actually openly betrayed him for her.
He knew his son well. If he insisted on marrying Ouyang Wu, it would be difficult to change him. Thinking of this, he slapped the table heavily, and the teacup on the table jumped a little, making a banging sound.
This was the scene the Queen saw when she entered the Imperial Study, so she stepped forward and whispered, "What is the Emperor worried about?"
The Emperor looked up when he heard this, and seeing that it was the Queen, he said coldly, "I am thinking about Feibai and Ouyang Wu's marriage - a woman like Ouyang Wu must not be married!"
The Queen didn't like Ouyang Wu in the first place. She had just learned from Lee Hsien Yao that Fang Fei had died, and this must have something to do with Ouyang Wu, so she suggested, "Your Majesty, since Feibai can't be persuaded, why not try Ouyang Wu first? If..."
A hint of murderous intent flashed in the Queen's eyes, and the Emperor nodded as if he was awakened, and said loudly, "Come on, summon Ouyang Wu to the palace!"
This was Ouyang Wu's first time entering the palace, and the palace in front of him was majestic and solemn. The vermilion glazed tiles are ancient and noble, with a faint golden glow. The palace is filled with elegant floral fragrance. There are vermilion carved columns everywhere. The round carved columns are carved with many lifelike flying dragons and phoenixes, which gradually spread to the cobblestone road.
After Ouyang Wu entered the palace, she was greeted in front of the imperial study, but she was not summoned in.
She has been standing there for half an hour. It must be that the emperor wants to give her a warning.
Ouyang Wu stood quietly, with a faint smile on her face.
After another quarter of an hour, a eunuch walked out from inside, walked to Ouyang Wu, and said, "Miss Ouyang, the emperor summons you to see him."
Ouyang Wu bowed her head lightly, replied yes, and then slowly walked into the imperial study. The emperor was tall and must have been a handsome man when he was young, but his long years of imperial life gave him a kind of awe-inspiring temperament, which made people feel fear involuntarily. Ouyang Wu saluted without being humble or arrogant, and then stood respectfully with her head lowered.
The emperor looked at the woman in front of him and was stunned for a moment. He thought Ouyang Wu was a charming woman, but the woman in front of him was wearing a white dress that made her look elegant and fairy-like, beautiful and icy. She had a transcendent temperament, and her salute movements were elegant and smooth, not like a woman who had never seen the world.
Ouyang Wu is a beautiful woman, but when the emperor thought of Ye Chonghua's attitude, his face turned cold and he said in a deep voice, "Are you Ouyang Wu?"
Ouyang Wu said softly, "Yes."
"Get up and raise your head."
Ouyang Wu stood up and looked at the emperor's square and majestic face. She knew at a glance that this was someone who would not tolerate disobedience. She was looking at this person who was high above her, and the emperor was also looking at her. She had a pair of extremely beautiful eyes, which showed a wise light, and a calm but graceful smile on her face.
The emperor said slowly: "Why don't you kneel down?!"
"I don't know what I did wrong?" Ouyang Wu's eyes widened, and a look of horror appeared on her face
"How dare you say that Li Fangfei's death has nothing to do with you?"
"How can the emperor wrongly accuse me like this?" Before coming, Ouyang Wu had already vaguely felt why the emperor wanted to see her. She had already prepared a handkerchief with a special medicine on it that could stimulate tears. She immediately covered her eyes with the special handkerchief and immediately burst into tears.
The emperor looked at Ouyang Wu crying and showing a pitiful look, and he didn't know what to say for a while. Ouyang Wu cried, "I am kindhearted by nature, how could I stain my hands with blood? Besides, I was with the prince all day yesterday, how could I kill others?"
The emperor's tone softened a little, but he still said, "You don't have to do it yourself..."
Ouyang Wu cried and said, "You know I was not loved by my parents in Dongjin. Now I have come to Xiling alone. Who can I use? How can I deal with the prominent Li family?"
"Your Majesty, you can investigate this matter thoroughly!" Ouyang Wu knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, you are a wise and great monarch. I believe you will not wrongly accuse a little girl, right?"
This drug is so effective. Tears kept falling down. It seemed that she couldn't stop them. Ouyang Wu was satisfied and ignored it. She just cried wildly with a strange calm face...
"Okay, okay... wipe your tears. What are you doing!" The emperor was also moved by Ouyang Wu's words. She came to Xiling Kingdom alone. What could she do? Besides, there was no evidence. How could she believe Lee Hsien Yao's one-sided words?
Ouyang Wu saw that the emperor's expression relaxed, and changed a handkerchief to slowly wipe away the tears on her face.
The emperor saw Ouyang Wu kneeling on the ground and sobbing. He couldn't help thinking that this woman was just an ordinary woman. How could Ye Feibai be so confused as to exchange six cities for her.
Thinking of this, the emperor commented lightly: "It's just your ears, not worth six cities at all. If you know what's good for you, leave on your own. If you don't..."
Ouyang Wu's tears flowed again: "Your Majesty is right, I am not worth six cities at all, I will leave on my own."
The emperor wanted to scold her again, but he didn't expect Ouyang Wu to speak so fluently. Ouyang Wu stood up slowly. Except for her slightly red and swollen eyes, the tears on her face had disappeared. She walked slowly in front of him: "Before leaving, I have something to give to the emperor."
The emperor didn't take Ouyang Wu's things seriously. He had seen countless treasures. A woman of his background like Ouyang Wu could bring him something.
Ouyang Wu did not speak, but smiled faintly. She stretched out her hand and slowly took out the self-ringing clock from the random space before coming. She gently placed it on the desk and smiled calmly: "Your Majesty, please look."
The emperor just glanced at the thing in front of him. It was a golden square shell with several pointers inside and a pendulum-like thing below. It was slowly swinging. At this time, the short pointer just pointed to six, and then there was a dong sound, and a bell sounded.
The emperor was startled, and then he got closer to observe with great curiosity. He found that the pointer actually moved automatically. He couldn't help but ask: "What is this?"
Ouyang Wu introduced: "This is called a self-ringing clock, which is used for timing. The pointer on it indicates the time, and it will strike every half an hour. If the emperor does not believe it, you can send someone to use an hourglass to keep time."
The emperor felt that there was no need for this at all, and he unconsciously believed what Ouyang Wu said. But he still felt it was magical, so he asked, "Where did you get this self-ringing clock?"
Ouyang Wu answered casually, "Wu'er had the chance to meet a Taoist priest who was traveling around. He felt that he had a connection with Wu'er, so he gave Wu'er many rare things."
The implication was that there was more than one thing.
The emperor couldn't put down the self-ringing clock in front of him. Such a magical thing was worth a city. He didn't know what other magical things she had in her hand. He looked at Ouyang Wu again. She stood beside him neither servile nor arrogant, neither seeking credit nor flattering. The emperor suddenly felt that Ouyang Wu looked much more pleasing to the eye.
Ouyang Wu bowed to the emperor again: "Your Majesty, I will leave now."
The emperor asked her to stay without thinking: "Hey, wait!"
Ouyang Wu looked at him curiously: "What else does your Majesty want?"
"Is Feibai okay these days? Is he sleeping well?"
Ouyang Wu replied cautiously: "Your Majesty has been eating and sleeping well these days."
"I think Feibai is in a good mood with you. Let's do this. Ye Yao and the others will hold a hundred flowers banquet the day after tomorrow. You can come with them then."
"Okay, Wu'er will tell the prince when she gets back." Ouyang Wu replied, with a slight smile on her face.
Not long after Ouyang Wu left the imperial study, she met a face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling at the corner. Ouyang Wu gave him a faint smile: "Why are you here?"
"As soon as I heard that you were summoned by my father, I rushed here immediately."
"Oh?"
"I never knew that the princess could cry so much." Ye Chonghua nodded, "Next time, you can only cry for me!"
"Hehe." Ouyang Wu laughed dryly twice. I guess Ye Chonghua saw her acting just now. Ye Chonghua took her hand and said, "I was afraid that you would suffer a loss, but I didn't expect you to buy my father so quickly."
"If you want to live comfortably, you have to think of a simple way."
